MADONNA'S ADOPTED SON FACES HERO'S WELCOME IN MALAWI

MADONNA's adopted son DAVID is set for a hero's welcome in Malawi this weekend (28-29Mar09) when he returns to his father's village for the first time since his mum rescued him from an orphanage.

Madonna is returning to Africa to complete the adoption of a baby girl and she is also expected to use the trip as an opportunity to reunite her first adopted child with his biological father Yohane Banda.

Banda tells In Touch magazine, "I am excited to get reunited with my son after three years."

He tells the publication there will be a huge village party when he arrives.

Madonna also plans to revisit the orphanage, where she first met David, and the child carers there can't wait.

Lucy Chipeta, the director of Home of Hope Orphanage, tells the magazine, "All the children are happy to be reunited with David. We have planned a special welcoming party for him. We will take him back to his crib and reunite him with the nanny who was looking after him."

Madonna is scheduled to appear before a High Court judge in the Malawian capital, Lilongwe, on 30 March (09) to process the adoption of a four-year-old girl, called Mercy James. The child was reportedly removed from her orphanage near Blantyre, Malawi earlier this week (begs23Mon09) and subsequently placed under a nanny's care at Kumbali Lodge, outside Lilongwe, where the singer has stayed on previous visits.
